    Sephora Play! December 2016

    This weekend I came home from work to find TWO beautiful surprises in the mail – my Target Beauty Box AND my Sephora Play! box!! I’ll review the Target one in a separate post, but today I’m talking about the Sephora box for December 🙂 The theme this month is “The Partygoers”, so there’s lots of cute products perfect for a holiday party! I’m always excited to get my Sephora box, but when I saw the spoilers for this month’s box I knew it was going to be a good one!! I was excited about every product in this box, and I…

    My Christmas List

    One of my favorite parts of Christmas is picking out the perfect presents for everyone. And every year I make a detailed list for my parents of gift ideas for me 🙂 My mom loves them haha, she says I make shopping so easy because I provide exact links and sizes and colors of everything I like. I originally wanted to post my shopping list of things I’m getting for others, but they all read my blog…so obviously that is not smart. Maybe after all the gift-giving is over I will share what I got for everyone <3 Anyway, today for the 12…

    Sephora Play! November 2016

    Today I have my Sephora Play box review for November, yay! This is coming a bit later than usual because I wanted to take individual photos of everything but it’s been getting dark so early 😐 so I decided to just use Christmas lights as my ambient lighting and roll with it haha November’s theme was Best in Glow, with items that are supposed to help you “bypass winter dullness”. Isn’t this month’s bag so cute? As always, the box comes with six products, a small bag, a card for 50 extra Beauty Insider points and a how-to info sheet. The…

    What I Bought at the VIB Sale + No Buy Check-In

    It’s November 15th, which means it’s time for my No Buy November check in! Side note – can you believe we are already halfway through the month?! I’m happy to say that my no-buy is going…pretty well! I know, I know, the title of this post is kind of a contradiction in itself. But if you recall in my first post about No Buy November, I said I was going to allow myself to shop during the Sephora VIB sale. And I’m happy to say that aside from that sale, I haven’t purchased any other makeup or clothing, which are normally…

    Sephora Play! October 2016

    It’s that time again! My Sephora Play! October box has arrived: The theme this month is “The Cool Cut”, which I guess they are intending to mean items that are new and different. As always, it came with six products, a bag, an info sheet and a card for 50 extra Beauty Insider points. Let us take a look inside. First up, we’ve got one of my favorite things – a liquid lipstick! This is Smashbox Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick, in the color Driver’s Seat ($24). I’ve been meaning to try out Smashbox’s liquid lip formula, but haven’t really had…

    Sephora Play! September 2016

    Anyone who knows me (or just looks at my credit card statement) can tell you that I looove makeup. It’s more of an obsession than anything. I really love trying out new things and it’s become a very fun hobby for me. It only makes sense then that I would love makeup subscription boxes…enter Sephora Play! Sephora Play is a monthly subscription box from Sephora. For $10 a month I get six products, a small bag, and a card for 50 extra Beauty Insider points at Sephora. I’ve been getting it since June and I really love it so far. Here’s what I got…
